Understanding the complex three-dimensional structure of cells is crucial across many disciplines in biology and especially in neuroscience. Here, we introduce a set of models including a 3D transformer (SwinUNetR) and a novel 3D self-supervised lear...
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Mulberry leaves (Morus alba L.) are used in traditional Chinese medicine to clear the lungs and dispel wind-heat. Despite their common use, chemical reference substance rely solely on rutin, which may not reflect their...
BACKGROUND: Genetic variations in the Trpm8 gene that encodes the cold receptor TRPM8 have been linked to protection against polygenic migraine, a disabling condition primarily affecting women. Noteworthy, TRPM8 has been recently found in brain areas...

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major public health concern associated with an increased risk of neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), and chronic traumatic encephalopathy, yet the underlying molec...
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to identify key immune-related biomarkers of benign schwannoma through machine learning-assisted transcriptomic and single-cell analyses, and to construct a predictive model for disease evaluation.
BACKGROUND: Automated whole-brain delineation (WBD) techniques often struggle to generalize across pre-clinical studies due to variations in animal models, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners, and tissue contrasts. We developed a 3D U-Net neura...
Galectin-3 (Gal-3) has emerged as a critical regulator of neuroinflammation and a promising therapeutic target for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Nevertheless, the development of brain-penetrant small-molecule Gal-3 inhibitors poses a significant challeng...
BACKGROUND: Major depressive disorder (MDD) exhibits a multifactorial etiopathogenesis, yet current diagnosis still relies on clinician-rated symptom scales and phenomenological interviews, lacking validated biomarkers.
Bio-instructive materials that intrinsically inhibit biofilm formation have significant anti-biofouling potential in industrial and healthcare settings. Since bacterial surface attachment is sensitive to surface topography, we experimentally surveyed...
Microglial activation is linked to neuroinflammation in neuropathic pain. Recently, microglia-mediated synaptic pruning has received mounting attention. However, the exact role of spinal microglia in modulating neuropathic pain-associated neural circ...
